The Grey Rat's Demon Path

Chapter 211: Chapter 188-189: Thunderous Demon King, Profound Armor Seven Stars

A thunderous rumble passed through the Array and into the mountain cave.

Inside the cave, Xu Chang’an’s expression was composed.

He hadn’t expected a Quasi-Tier Three Array set up with Array Flags to escape a Demon King’s detection.

’Besides, the one outside is no ordinary Demon King!’

"If you won’t come out, then I’ll have to drag you out myself!"

As the middle-aged man’s thunderous voice rang out.

The Spiritual Qi in the air turned violent.

An insectoid phantom dozens of yards in size materialized behind the man.

Its antennae gleamed with a metallic sheen. Its bright red back was covered with seven large black spots. At first glance, there appeared to be only seven, but a closer look revealed each large spot was actually composed of countless minuscule dots. Behind it was a pair of wings as thin as a cicada’s, and its mouthparts were packed with dense rows of small, sharp teeth.

A Profound Armor, Red-Faced, Seven-Star Ladybug!

A Bloodline of the absolute highest caliber!

The Spiritual Qi surged!

The seven large black spots on the insectoid phantom’s back seemed to come alive. Sharp spikes emerged from within the spots.

And then...

WHOOSH! WHOOSH! WHOOSH!

Blanketing the sky, the dense barrage of spikes shot toward the mountain cave!

The Quasi-Tier Three Array that Xu Chang’an had set up using Array Flags was mainly for concealment and isolation. Its Defense was extremely weak.

If the spikes struck, the array wouldn’t be able to withstand them in the slightest.

Just as the sky-blotting barrage of spikes drew near, a Golden Lion appeared in mid-air.

ROAR—

Following an earth-shattering roar, ripples of Demon Power spread out. The sharp spikes seemed to hit an impassable barrier and fell from the sky.

"You’ve got some nerve! Daring to disturb my secluded cultivation!"

Xu Chang’an fixed his golden eyes, devoid of any emotion, on the middle-aged man in the air.

’A Demon King! One I’ve never seen before!’

The middle-aged man looked somewhat surprised.

He’d thought that behind a Quasi-Third Tier Concealment Isolation Array, he would find a Quasi-Demon King at most. There was even a high chance it was just a Top-tier Great Demon.

But he never expected it to be a true Demon King!

But...

’So what if he’s a Demon King!?’

’He, the Profound Armor Seven-Star Demon King, was no ordinary Demon King!’

’He’d defeated more than just one or two Demon Kings with his own hands!’

If Xu Chang’an had come out and offered an explanation to clear up the misunderstanding, then since they were both Demon Kings of the Demon Race, they wouldn’t have come to blows at the drop of a hat.

However, Xu Chang’an hadn’t emerged with any intention of making peace.

He had just experienced a Bloodline Advancement and mastered two Talent Secret Techniques that were nearly on par with Talent Divine Techniques.

He was eager to test his combat strength and see if, just as he suspected, he had reached the level of an upper-tier among top Demon Kings.

As luck would have it, this Demon King had come knocking.

’He was so insolent!’

’So what if he isn’t an ordinary Demon King!?’

’My only worry was that my opponent would be too weak to let me go all out!’

"Which faction are you from, Demon King!? Why have I never seen you before!?"

the Profound Armor Seven-Star Demon King said coolly.

Since this was an unfamiliar Demon King, and he was the resident Demon King of the Five Thunders Mine in the territory of Thundering Mountain, he naturally had to ask some questions.

’This Golden Lion before me... his Cultivation is only at the Early-stage Core Formation, but his Demon Power foundation is quite profound!’

"Not only did you dare disturb my cultivation, but now you’re interrogating me! What gives you the nerve!?"

Xu Chang’an looked at the Profound Armor Seven-Star Demon King before him.

’Peak of Mid-stage Core Formation Cultivation, an impressive foundation. I wonder what his actual Magical Combat abilities are like!’

"Arrogant!"

Hearing Xu Chang’an’s words, the Profound Armor Seven-Star Demon King laughed instead of growing angry.

’Where did this Demon King come from? He doesn’t know his own limits!’

’To be so insolent in the territory of Thundering Mountain!’

’I, Profound Armor Seven Stars, will teach him a good lesson!’

Without another word, he unleashed his Mid-stage Core Formation Demon Sense, crushing down with overwhelming force!

At the same time, his Demon Power erupted, and a thin, invisible needle shot out silently.

The Middle-Grade Magical Treasure, the Invisible Forbidden Technique Needle!

’He’d lost count of how many Demon Kings of the same rank he’d defeated with this thing!’

To the Profound Armor Seven-Star Demon King’s surprise, his opponent didn’t summon a Magical Treasure in response.

Instead, with a tremendous roar, he pounced.

His speed wasn’t the slightest bit slower than an ordinary Magical Treasure!

"How bold!"

’To think he’d try to face the might of a Magical Treasure with his physical body alone!’

The Invisible Forbidden Technique Needle approached the Golden Lion and instantly pierced into its Demon Body.

’The outcome is settled!’

A smile appeared on the Profound Armor Seven-Star Demon King’s face.

’The Invisible Forbidden Technique Needle can seal Demon Power!’

’My opponent is a Demon King, so while it can’t be sealed completely, it will definitely disrupt the flow of his Demon Power.’

Hm!?

’Something’s wrong!’

The Profound Armor Seven-Star Demon King instantly sensed that the Invisible Forbidden Technique Needle hadn’t successfully pierced his opponent’s body.

Instead, it had pierced the fur and gotten stuck within it.

’How is that possible!?’

WHOOSH!

By this time, Xu Chang’an had already pounced before the Profound Armor Seven-Star Demon King.

A giant claw swiped out!

Though the Profound Armor Seven-Star Demon King was shocked that the Invisible Forbidden Technique Needle had failed to pierce his opponent’s body, he was rich with experience in Magical Combat.

Faced with Xu Chang’an’s melee attack, he instantly summoned a diamond-shaped, iron plate-like Magical Treasure to protect himself.

CLANG—

Spiritual Light flashed on the Magical Treasure as it withstood the full force of Xu Chang’an’s claw.

Feeling the immense power transmitted from the blow, the Profound Armor Seven-Star Demon King’s expression changed slightly!

’The power of that single strike was in no way inferior to the Peak of Middle Stage of Core Formation!’

SWOOSH!

Xu Chang’an’s figure flickered, and he pounced again.

The Profound Armor Seven-Star Demon King controlled the diamond-shaped iron plate Magical Treasure while simultaneously casting Magic, trying to put some distance between them.

Meanwhile, the Invisible Forbidden Technique Needle lay in wait for an opportunity to strike.

He had discovered that it wasn’t that the Invisible Forbidden Technique Needle was unable to pierce his opponent’s body.
